The Library Expert has IPC-7351B Solder Joint Goals in a Preference file in this folder - 
C:\Program Files (x86)\PCB Libraries\Library Expert 2019 

File Name: IPC-7351B_DefaultPreferences.dat 

The Library Expert default Preference file was updated to conform to IPC-J-STD-001.

Hi everybody.

I am quite sure to remember the least toe value for rectangular end cap equal or lager than 0603 to be 0.15 mm (according to IPC-7351B).

from the library expert solder joint goal tables i get different values the bigger the components get (0603 already 0.2, 1206 & 1210 have a 0.25mm toe, and so on).

could anyone help me solve my confusion?

Cheers
Beat
