Ok, thanks, I'll look into that... actually I thought that PCB always had very nice defaults that PCB fabs accept in general. I have experience in a different package *couch PADS* with CAM jobs and I always find it a pain to set a proper one up that fills my needs. OTOH a CAM job manager which installs with sensible defaults would be very nice. Until that day a few extra checkboxes in the export dialogs would work too (i.e. for your issue to draw outlines on the soldermask).
