It may not be an issue with your PCB fabricator. You need to ask.

I make my footprints with 10mils of clearance between the copper and
silkscreen. That eliminates a potential error.

I review all of my footprints prior to usage and place reviewed footprints
in a "production" directory tree. All designers are using the same set
of footprints and the footprints don't change with revisions to the
PCB software.
