What is the proper way to align the rip fence. I have a General with a
12" blade and a General ripping fence. In particular I am interested in
how much off-parellel to the blade should it be? I am assuming it is
not expected to be perfectly parallel but a little closer at the front
of the blade than the back.

If anything, yes, but you are straying into religious territory. Some will
say dead parallel others will suggest a little relief.

Personally I go for as parallel as I can make it.
