v_kyr Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 You can emulate such a border offset with multiple stroke widths and/or some FX effect settings. - Another mainstream font used here but you will get the overall sense ... See also this thread instead for gradients which follow a shape (see here) then.
