- open a new image and fill it with the color you want the outline to be
- put your text in it but before you put it there make sure you have "floating" selected
- add the text
- go to "selections > modify > expand" and choose for example 2px
- go to "edit > copy merged"
- then go back to your image you want your outline text to be in, make a new layer and hit ctrl+v to paste it into your new document :) et voila

I used this always in psp7 and psp8, and i probably guess nothing has changed, this is a basic thing that needs the tools that are available in every version of psp
