Looking for a two color font to use for photo titles

I'm using the "Process multiple files" command in PSE to put the titles on my photos for a slideshow. The problem is that it only gives you the option to choose a font, color, and size, but no outlining options. So, for example, if you choose white, the font will disappear over any white parts of the photo. Outlining in another color would solve this, but it's not an option.

 

So I'm looking for a two-color font that will work in PSE if such a thing exists. Or any other solution that would make the titles visible over all parts of the photo.

Suggest that you title the files manually, rather than via a semi-automatic batch process. You can choose a contrasting color for the font, and in the Effects palette there are multiple options, e.g. outer glow, that can be applied to the text.
