You might want to look at running the Wine Configuration program, 
winecfg by typing, in a terminal session, wine winecfg

This will bring up a dialog box like in your picture.  Select the 
Graphics tab and move the slider on the bottom to reflect the dots per 
inch of your screen.  In my case, it is 120 dpi.  On other computers it 
is 133 dpi and on some older monitors, it is 96dpi.  The formula to 
determine the value is to measure the actual size of your screen. in 
inches, as most screens are measured on the diagonal (bottom left corner 
to upper right corner).  Divide the number of pixels displayed by the 
number of inches.  My screen is 8 inches tall and my display is 960 
Pixels (dots).  The result is 960/8 =120 dpi.

Hope this helps and sorry for the massive technical explanation.  If 
this does NOT help, please visit the Applications Database (AppDb) and 
see if anyone has encountered this problem before and what they tried to 
do to fix this particular problem.
