56 {image:pdf2.png|document=ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise19M2}
57 - Changed the default font to FreeSerif, as it looks better on paper.
58 {image:pdf3.png|document=ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise19M2}
59 - Scaled images preserve the custom dimensions in PDFs also, with the exception that the aspect ratio is always preserved to be the same as the original image, and:
60 - Images are prevented from overflowing the paper, by being automatically scaled down to the maximum available space.
61 - The export works when running the container as a user with no home directory, since now the cache is correctly created in the temporary directory.
62 - A few style changes.

Previously, they had to be manually added to the ~~XWiki.XWikiPreferences~~ class. These settings are also used with the registration confirmation email.
