To have makeindex run, try evaluating the following elisp:
(setq org-latex-to-pdf-process
'("pdflatex -interaction nonstopmode %b"
"bibtex %b"
"makeindex %b.nlo -s nomencl.ist -o %b.nls"
"pdflatex -interaction nonstopmode %b"
"pdflatex -interaction nonstopmode %b"))
Alternatively, you can customize the variable org-latex-to-pdf-process
as Nick suggests, to accomplish the same thing. Use the following
command:
M-x customize-variable org-latex-to-pdf-process
More documentation is available through customize, and there is lots
of great information available here:
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html
Hope this helps,
Andrew
