You can but self-rising flour has salt and baking soda added to it as a leavening agent. If you use all purpose instead of self-rising you will need to add soda and salt so that you don't end up with a flat cake or cookies.

Yes you can, however if your recipie states self raising flour then you would need to add a raising agent such as baking powder, or a mix of creme of tartar and bicarbonate of soda.

Yes - but for every cup of plain (all purpose) flour you use add 1 teaspoon of baking powder. Sift them together before adding.

It would not neccesarily work the other way round because Self-raising flour already contains a raising agent and you do not want all flour-based baked goods e.g. pie crust or shortbread, to rise.

Yes. Just be sure to omit the salt and baking soda/powder if using self-rising flour instead of all purpose.

Yes, but you have to add the salt and baking powder, which is 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder for each cup flour.
