As the name suggests, autoindent helps mainly in indenting source code, while autoformat can be used while editing text.
For more information, you can access vim help by typing :help autoindent and :help autoformat.
See this post for additional info: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2355834/how-can-i-autoformat-indent-c-code-in-vim. It also addresses the 2nd part of your question.
Vim wiki at wikia has pages on these topics too: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Indenting_source_code http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Automatic_formatting_of_paragraphs
