Hi there Zazzle team!

Can we get an outline also called a stroke or border for the text option in the design editor?

There is one for elements but it would also be helpful for text. For now I sometimes add a second layer, a copy,  of text slightly moved one pixel to the right and down to create a shadow effect. It is very helpful when you want bright text on a bright background.

Thanks.

I would love it if Zazzle implemented that feature.

That will solve the issues with black fonts on black t-shirts too.

I had this request posted last year:

Your idea to have the "text slightly moved one pixel to the right and down to create a shadow effect" will be easy to implement (I think).

It seems like that feature has some demand... 🙂
