There is nothing really "special" about it. Self rising flour already has baking powder and salt mixed into the flour. It may save you a step or two when you prepare your recipes. Although you can create your own self rising flour, it is best to use the already packaged brands sold at your local grocery stores.

If a recipe calls for baking powder do you use plain flour or selfrising flour?

The flour is the same amount. The adjustment is in the leavening agent. In most things, you should be able to leave it out if you use self rising. If you look at most recipes, it takes 1 teaspoon of baking powder to 1 cup of flour. This varies somewhat, but it should get you close.

Can you use gluten free flour instead of self raising flour?

Technically all flour has gluten in it. Gluten is a protein found in food processed from wheat and other related species. Different kinds of flours have different levels of gluten (bread flour has high gluten vs. cake flour with low gluten). Self-rising flour is all-purpose flour with salt and some kind of leavening agent. So yes, self-rising flour, like all flour has gluten in it. It just doesn't have special amount added or taken away like bread or cake flour does. It has same gluten content as all-purpose flour.
