Are PoserCF files needed for DazStudio 4.5?

The explanations of terms used in Daz3D files are not always easy to find.

For example, I am archiving copies of new programs that I have just downloaded. I just bought "Medieval Male Peasant Clothing for Genesis." I can ignore the Legacy file offered, but what about the 3rd file, "Medieval Male Peasant Clothing for Genesis PoserCF"?

What is a CF file? Is this PoserCF file to be used only by Poser users, or will I need it for installing in DazStudio 4.5 too, when I get around to needing the Medieval clothing?

Also, when I see a file like" Moroccan Dreams for Michael 4 StudioCF" for "Moroccan Dreams for Michael 4" I assume I need both files, but I'd like to understand the theory. Does the presence of a StudioCF file mean that mean that the main file, "Moroccan Dreams for Michael 4" is a Poser file that needs the StudioCF file to modify it to work in DS 4.5? Or does it mean something else entirely?

The old file formats for downloading purchases weren't perfectly clear in and of themselves, but it seemed easier to find posters who explained how to use them. Where is there a glossary for understanding the newer system?

    Poser CF files are needed for when you use a Product in Poser.

    Studio CF files are to use the product in DS . These usually do come with products like the one you mention, which was released as a Poser product.
