Well, we know with absolute certainty that the theatrical Episode I used that font. I would assume that Episodes II and III did also.

It's supposedly a "match" to the subs in the original trilogy, but there's no real way to confirm that without some kind of reference. I checked my very grainy theatrical Star Wars bootleg and it's difficult to make out the font. It could be FGDB, it could be News Gothic Bold too. But they are very similar.

The general consensus we came too in this thread is New Gothic Medium. Although Trade Gothic may be a possibility as well.
I'll try to help with the other questions later.
