If you want to solely read and display PDFs to users, as the Mail app does on your iOS device with all the scrolling and zooming done for you, then I would use a UIDocumentInteractionController.

You'll find some useful code in one of my recent questions, here:
UIDocumentInteractionController crashing upon exit
Hope this helps.
