I agree to both.. (making special paste screen AND making 1:1). It 
depends. Most "standard" stuff works fine with 1:1 and reduction by 
the stencil shop according to assembly house request; no need to 
think about for the librarian at all.

If I use QFNs, (µ)BGAs, or other special stuff with big pads, heat 
sinks etc., then I try to contact the technicians who are responsible 
for assembly and ask for their recommendations. Not so easy to get in 
contact with assembly houses as I am "only" the external design 
bureau, additional work for the librarian (usually me :-) ), 
additional documentation, library variants...

Best regards
