The default honeycomb emulator is too large

You can use the following emulator arguments in the run configuration

-sclae 0.5

This value can be anywhere between 0.1 and 3

when you scale it down...

To do this the path is

Home
Apps
Spare Parts
Fonts

Notice this font setting is not in the settings portion.
