There's plenty of info about syncing keyboard shorcuts across ios devices, but isn't there a way to sync the text shorctus set up under "Language and Text" in OSX Settings with the keyboard shortcuts in iOS? I'm still having to set up the same shortcuts in 2 places when the infrusture to support syncing is already in place.

No. Even in OS X, the Language and Text shortcuts don't apply to Pages, which has its own.
A good thing to ask Apple to add:

Submitted! Thanx, Tom.
Hi,
I have found the simple solution for Syncing the IOS keyboard Shortcuts to OSX.
Thanks & Reagrds
This worked well for "resetting" sync of shortcuts between iOS devices (sign out of icloud - sign in again), but it did not work to get the shortcuts back to my Mac... (I waited a few minutes, not hours).
I just bought a new MacBook Pro and was expecting (hoping?) all of my Text Shortcuts would sync back across. They had previously synced to my old MacBook Pro from my iPhone, and have tried signing out/into iCloud in OS X, but still nothing days (a couple weeks actually) later. What's weird is that I can add a new text replacement shortcut in OS X and it DOES show up on my iPhone.

It would be great if existing entries on my iPhone would just sync back to OS X. The Text Replacement feature is a HUGE time saver.
