Yes - Look at the document properties viewState, pageWindowRect, and innerDocWindowRect in the JavaScript for Acrobat Documentation. You can calculate it knowing those values. What exactly are you trying to accomplish?

I am reviewing large drawings and I need to mark areas with semi transparent boxes where there are areas of concern.

I can create the boxes without any problems but not within the field of view of the monitor, so I want to create the boxes in the middle of the viewing area instead of chasing after the boxes in a static location (laziness on my part).

Thanks for the hints, I will try them out.
