A newbie question here regarding text drop shadows. Is there a quick simple way of achieving drop shadows without breaking the text apart?

Also, I’m finding that some of the text I’ve typed into a menu I’m working on comes out very blurry while other words typed with the same pixel font are very clear. Any ideas why this happens and how to remedy it?

Many thanks!
