It's an outer glow, probably with a spread/siz of 5-10. Experimentation is the best way to get the effect you like.

if you want outline or some other for your text, its in the layer bar

outline - go to stroke

outer glow - is for outer glow

shadow - drop shadow

its fairly simple, i know this is a Q & A forum and i'm willing to answer your questions. just pm and i'll gladly help you out. free ofc.
