How do I compute the screen width of a particular font?

Greetings:    I need to adjust a UILabel's width per with of its text.
What I did was to get the text's length via [NSString length].   Of course,
the displayed UILabel width is too narrow to fully display the actual
string.
So I believe I need to compute the true width based on the number of
font-sized characters.

Is there a simple, quick way to do this?

Regards,

Ric.
