Contributor license for AutoCAD files

There is a lot of discussion on the forums about the difference between EPDM Editor, Contributor, Viewer license types, but I need some clarification.  If you are an AutoCAD user, would you need Editor or Contributor?  Some people say Contributor doesn't handle modification of non-CAD files while others say non-SW files.  I'd like to know which is correct.

Thanks!
