Default preping Illustrator/Photoshop files for the screenprinter
so i'm trying to prep some illustrator and photoshop files for the printer and wanted to clarify I've done everything correctly. Illustrator files need their own separate layers, correct? and should I include a white underbase for either of my illustrator/PS files? I still need to get a pantone formula guide so I can properly label the ink colors. am I missing anything?

No reason to have separate layers, AI will separate correctly if you have a postscript printer.
Do you need an underbase? If so you will need to create one.
