Buying DLC and then re-install game question

If i buy and install DLC (like Jaws of Hakkon). Will it automatically install when i completely re-download and reinstall DAI at a later date?

Will i get the option to press the download buttons on the DLC in the game details section in Origin as i've done previously?

I'd really like to not have to spend a lot longer downloading gigabytes more than needed.

When you start the install automatically queue all the DLC you have. However a small download manager should appear, and you can cancel the installation of anything you don't want.

If you want to add them later you can just use the download buttons like before.

Thankyou David, that's great to know.
Believe it or not, having that option would make my mind up whether to buy larger DLC or not.
It'd be great if Origin could have a function like Steam where DLC can be unticked to not download before installing.
