Hi
As David suggests, this is certainly a problem with fonts - you're getting a large variant of Courier; the default font in iMosflm is Helvetica, and it looks like your X-display isn't finding it for some reason.
You should be able to re-size the window by dragging out the bottom right hand corner of the "Processing options" window, even if there's no visible handle.
Ubuntu has been becoming less good at having "normal Linux things" installed by default over the last few years - I'm sure Canonical has very good reasons for this, but it has put me off recommending it.

This might be a problem with fonts. On my laptop the menu items use a sans serif font and that particular window is just wide enough to fit all the items. The font also looks more attractive and readable than your screenshot. I'm guessing (from your desktop background!) that you also use Ubuntu. Unfortunately I can't remember how I set fonts up on my machine, but it may help to:
1) install the ttf-mscorefonts-installer package
2) ensure the package gsfonts-x11 is *not* installed (this causes an incorrect mapping of unicode symbols so you get things like the registered trademark symbol appearing - an effect apparently known as "mojibake"...)
