It should be possible to use the machinery that publishing uses in the
HTML case, but I haven't tried.
For PDF, it is fairly easy: you have to add some stuff in the preamble
and then add a line to print the index - like this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{makeidx}
#+LATEX_HEADER: \makeindex
* foo
#+INDEX: this
this
#+LATEX: \printindex
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
You have to make sure that your org-latex-pdf-process runs the
makeindex program. I use texi2dvi and it does that automatically.
I presume latexmk would also. But if you use the default of "three calls
to pdflatex", you will need to modify it. Do
C-h v org-latex-pdf-process RET
for more info.
