InDesign CC will do live ebook indexes!
We are excited to announce that the next version of
InDesign, InDesign CC (Creative Cloud), will be able
to use embedded index markers to create live linked
ebook indexes, using the EPUB export.

Terry White is Adobe's Worldwide Creative Suite Design Evangelist.
Dave Ream and I met with the Adobe InDesign Engineers in September last year to facilitate this feature, and ASI is ecstatic
that Adobe was able to implement it in time for this release of InDesign. Adobe's Chris Kitchener and Douglas Waterfall are heroes to the indexing community for their work to get this feature live and ready to go.
If you want to thank Adobe for this feature, there is a commenting feature on Terry White's blog. Leave a note for Terry about how exciting this is, and how much indexers appreciate it.

This feature will only be available in the Creative Cloud version of InDesign. Desktop versions, ending at CS6, will not have this
capability. InDesign CC is expected to ship through subscription in late June.
