Default question on ordering glass for cabinet

I finished building a curio cabinet for SWMBO and am ready to order the
glass for it. I was thinking of ordering it about 1/8 in shorter and
narrower then the openings. Is that about standard procedure? Also when
hanging the doors, I want to get them set right the first time. Should I set
the doors in the opening and shim them up for proper clearance then mark the
cabinet where the hinges will go? I'm using antique brass butt hinges.
Appreciate any suggestions.
