How about writing on the moon while it's dark? Reflect enough sunlight onto the dark side to make it about as bright as the light side. That would give a good contrast.
You would need an array of mirrors about the size of France in orbit about the earth. Thin film mirrors would be a lot lighter than asphalt. Precisely aiming the mirrors would be the challenge.
