# Soft drop shadow of a text

I need to achieve such a soft drop shadow using only tikz! without contour, pgf-blur or simmilar.

I was searching for the solution, but was not managed to find one with tikz.

However, I have noticed a tikz's library called shadows. I tried to implement that, but I'm getting a rectangular shaddow instead of text-like.

\documentclass[12pt]{article}

\usepackage{tikz}

\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture}
\end{tikzpicture}

\end{document}


Probably, if I am bale to blur the text using tikz, it will for for me, I will just put one behind and it is done.

Here is a hundred percent handcrafted pure-TikZ solution (no libraries no nothing).

It does pretty much the same thing as pgf-blur or contour I guess.

\documentclass[tikz]{standalone}

\pgfmathsetmacro{\randamp}{0.005}

\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture}
\begin{scope}[xshift=0.2em,yshift=-0.2ex]
node at (\angshadow:\randamp) {Text}
};
\end{scope}
\node[] at (0,0) {Text};
\end{tikzpicture}

\end{document}


EDIT : Here is something that aims at begin a bit closer to the request in the comments. Without the definition of the parameters "spread" and others, I can't know for sure though.

\documentclass[tikz]{standalone}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
