The Hand Tool is used to 'push' the page around in the document window, or even go to a different page.You may also find yourself frequently going back and forth between the same two magnification levels, in which case you could use the Toggle Zoom shortcut, Alt+Ctrl+2 (PC) / Option+Command+2 (Mac).Actual Size: Ctrl+1 (PC) / Command+1 (Mac).

Fit Spread in Window: Alt+Ctrl+0 (PC) / Option+Command+0 (Mac).

Fit Page in Window: Ctrl+0 (PC) / Command+0 (Mac).

Zoom Out: Ctrl+- (PC) / Command+- (Mac).

There are also commands in the View menu which have keyboard shortcuts.

The Zoom Tool lets you change the magnification of the document within the window.
