If you follow these suggestion and sit with FvwmConsole for several minutes, you may find what is good to you: * preferably use bold font or xft font * try different shadow sizes (1, 2) and offsets (0, 1, 2) * preferably use light foreground color and not very dark background * define shadow color (try: fgsh black) if the evaluated one is not good If you use black text color it is pretty difficult (but possible) to define good shadow, because a human eye only likes dark shadows, so start with white text color or rgb:e0/e0/e0 or similar.
