Yeah, every stencil file gets thoroughly reviewed. We reduce aperture sizes for fine pitch components, "window pane" large apertures, round-rects on BGA's, all that kind of stuff. If you choose a CircuitHub approved footprint, all that kind of stuff will be taken care of automatically.

Using high-end machines makes life a lot easier too because we have a controlled snap off speed and angle as well as consistent squeegee pressure and paste bead height. You wouldn't believe how many factors go into getting a good stencil print.
