Draw a few black (or whatever you want the border color to be) labels with some offset and the main label on the top. Example:

dxDrawText("Text with border",100-1,100,100-1,100,tocolor(0,0,0,255)) 
dxDrawText("Text with border",100+1,100,100+1,100,tocolor(0,0,0,255)) 
dxDrawText("Text with border",100,100-1,100,100-1,tocolor(0,0,0,255)) 
dxDrawText("Text with border",100,100+1,100,100+1,tocolor(0,0,0,255)) 
dxDrawText("Text with border",100,100,100,100,tocolor(255,255,255,255)) 

This will draw white text with black border at coordinates (100, 100). The border width will be 1 because this number is added to or subtracted from border labels.

First.. Is ' dxDrawColorText ' a custom function you have written?

' dxDrawColorText ' does not exist in MTA. You should use ' dxDrawText '

Have a look at this example

  
local rootElement = getRootElement() 
local screenWidth, screenHeight = guiGetScreenSize() -- Get the screen resolution 
  
  
function createText ( ) 
    local playerX, playerY, playerZ = getElementPosition( getLocalPlayer() )  -- Get player's coordinates. 
    local playerZoneName =  getZoneName( playerX, playerY, playerZ )          -- Get name of the player's zone. 
  
    dxDrawText( playerZoneName, 44, screenHeight-41, screenWidth, screenHeight, tocolor ( 0, 0, 0, 255 ), 1.02, "pricedown" )    -- Draw Zone Name text shadow. 
    dxDrawText( playerZoneName, 44, screenHeight-43, screenWidth, screenHeight, tocolor ( 255, 255, 255, 255 ), 1, "pricedown" ) -- Draw Zone Name text. 
end 
  
  
function HandleTheRendering() 
    addEventHandler("onClientRender",rootElement, createText) -- keep the text visible with onClientRender. 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart",resourceRoot, HandleTheRendering)

In the same way I wrote: DRAW A FEW LABELS WITH SOME OFFSET.

You dont have to write 5 lines to do that.

Take a look at the Wiki example I posted, it does exactly the same with 2 lines.

It's not the same. A few displaced labels give the border the same width in all places, while one scaled label makes the border thinner near the center. Sometimes the difference may be small enough, but my way is more universal.
