In my opinion where the supply vents are located is not as important as where the return air vents are located. the supply vents should be located towards the outer walls if possible. the return air vents should be located towards the center of the dwelling if possible. every effort should be made to get the return air vents as high as possible on the wall , if not in the ceiling.Remember you are trying to get the warm air back to the a-coil so it can be pumped outside through the refrigeration lines to the condensing unit. if the ductwork is used for heating also you should put some return air vents down low to get the cool air to the furnace. This is my personal opinion and may not be everyones.

How many square feet apart should you place vents?
Air vents are placed based on the required cfm load calculation per room not necessarily set at specific square feet apart.

The installation and maintenance manual for your unit should tell you that. I would say 8-10 and a minimum air flow of around 1200 cfm.
What exactly is central air conditioning I know I have AC, but what makes it central?
Central air conditioning is an air conditioning system with a central unit that distributes air to the rest of the house through vents. Some people have air conditioning units that are separate for each room, but most houses today have a centralized unit, usually located outside the home, which pumps air to each part of the house through the ventilation system. That is what is referred to as Central Air conditioning, because there is just one centralized unit cooling the entire place, as opposed to many autonomous units cooling each room.
