Anyone have any ideas on how this would work ? I'm having a hard

Why would a UITextView not do the job? UITextView is already a
sub-class of UIScrollView,
so all the scrolling behaviour is done for you.
If you really need to 'roll your own', study the NSString UIKit
Additions Reference API in UIKit.
That describes methods for fitting text into specified rectangles with
specified fonts
and specified line-breaking modes . . .
