Hi,
I would like to override a part of my document (containing unwanted text) with color surrounding this area.
Is there anything like the eyedropper tool in Photoshop that I could click on to pick up the desired color?
Admittedly I am not very deep in this wonderful app and haven't found anything the like so far.
I appreciate your help.

Re: PDF-XChange Editor Plus - Eyedropper Tool?
The closest workaround I can come up with that might meet your needs would be to use the Pencil tool with the Stroke Color set to white. You can set the width of the line that the Pencil tool lays down and, with the color set to white, draw around the text want preserved. You can use the eraser tool to eliminate any paint-overs. When done, flatten the page. I know this is not as good as a PhotoShop eye-dropper but that's as close as I can get.
All best,
