There's another potential solution, but these might be too complicated for your purposes.

You can use a open source solution like OHAttributedLabel (which uses a NSAttributedString) or a CATextLayer which takes a NSAttributedString as well.

I got these answers from this related question (which includes sample code for OHAttributedLabel).

You have to use two labels and set font accordingly.

You can't do that with a UILabel.

One option is to use a UIWebView and stick HTML inside it...
