I bet you installed the 100dpi fonts?
There are two ways to fix the problem. 1) Make sure that the 75dpi
fonts are listed before the 100dpi fonts in your
/etc/XF86Config-4. Like:
Section "Files"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi"
EndSection
or, 2) You can set the font Emacs (or XEmacs) uses for the menu by
setting the corresponding X resource. Just edit, or create, a file
named ~/.Xresources and put a line in there like:
Emacs*menubar.font: -*-helvetica-medium-r-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
The "14" is the font size. You can use xfontsel to look at the
available fonts and choose one to your liking. Note that the line
above works for *both* XEmacs and GNU Emacs. Once you have that you
can do:
xrdb ~/.Xresources
and you'll be good to go on all future invocations of Emacs.
