All these indicate a problem with dpi scaling. You might want to read
the following threads for comparison:
http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=20619
http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=21348
http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=22204
Maybe you could also try the patch proposed in one of them.
