    I'm surprised that Illustrator is so poor on outer glow. I had a quick go with Serif Drawplus...(blend mode of the outer glow was set to normal) and this is what I got.
    Also tried pasting black text on top of white text (and increasing the line width of the white text to show through)
    And tried gaussian blurring the white text behind. I found the gaussian blur gave a much fainter glow.

    Ninja'd by tilt: Forgot you could also just use a white outline. Serif allows you to alter the opacity of the fill and outline separately, does .ai have this feature?

    Also, serif has a raster outline filter which you might use.

    p.s. thanks for mentioning textbrewer which I had not seen before!
