Great advice. The amount of times we have received artwork, imported into ArtPro, applied trapping and screening, retouched images for flexo and then got a phone call saying "sorry, just realised something was wrong and we are re-sending". It's normally a minor change so we compare differences and just drop the new text over the top rather than starting again but its still frustrating.
As for the zip file we just ask for the working documents in Artpro with all the relevant images. Each to their own, so as Matt says, check what their specific requirements are.
