How to change an UILabel/UIFont's letter spacing?

Question

I\'ve searched loads already and couldn\'t find an answer.

I have a normal UILabel, defined this way:

    UILabel *totalColors = [[[UILabel alloc] in

From iOS 6 you can use NSAttributedString in UILabel.

In attributed string you can use attribute NSKernAttributeName to set letter spacing

NSMutableAttributedString* attrStr = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString: @"Test test test test "];
[attrStr addAttribute:NSKernAttributeName value:@(4.0) range:NSMakeRange(0, attrStr.length)];

UILabel* label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 300, 300, 100)];
label.attributedText = attrStr;
