Is that image after selecting the whole buffer, or is yellow the
default background on that frame?
Also, what font is being used here? You can see that by going to some
of the characters and typing "C-u C-x =": Emacs will pop up a buffer
which shows, among other things, what font is being used to display
that character.

Not if you install broken fonts, which, e.g., lie to Emacs about the
character dimensions. (I'm not saying this is what happened, but just
don't expect Emacs to "cope" with bad fonts.)
