Ialso give link of the pdf here. Please check it once http://www.iari.res.in/files/Circular_Final-070812.pdf.

You could manually create most of the layer effects. Judging by the example you posted you want kind of a drop shadow:
-Type your text
-Convert text to shape by right click -> convert to shape
- Duplicate (Ctrl+J)
- Make the bottom one black on fill, with a 1 or 2 pt black stroke.
- Turn the black bottom one into a Smart object
- Give the Smart object a Gausian Blur of a few pixels, really depends on the size (this is the way of giving vectors a blur / filter in photoshop, as technically they're still vectors, the blurs might not scale along as well but the quality of the vector remains.
- Move it into position
- Lover its opacity a tad _________________ Bart J.A.H. de Brouwer
