I have a similar issue on my laptop where I use the ATI binary driver and
connect an external monitor once in a while. When I only use the internal
screen, PDF files (only PDF; PS, DVI, EPS worked) would be vertically stretched
in okular and gv (xpdf and evince were fine) when I use a natural (as opposed
to pixel based) scale. 
I ran "xdpyinfo | grep dot" and found out that my screen was configured by the
driver to have 96x48 DPI. The problem was fixed by specifying the physical
monitor dimensions in xorg.conf and the size of the 100% view on the screen was
very close to the actual paper. I haven't tried to connect the external monitor
since, but I think I'll have to tinker with xorg.conf again when that happens.
It would be nice to have the option to use a pixel based scale in okular like
in gv.
