#### 12.11.4 Indices

Index entries are created using dedicated keywords. ‘`texinfo`’ back-end provides one for each predefined type: `#+CINDEX`, `#+FINDEX`, `#+KINDEX`, `#+PINDEX`, `#+TINDEX` and `#+VINDEX`. For custom indices, you can write raw Texinfo code (see Quoting Texinfo code).

    #+CINDEX: Defining indexing entries

To generate an index, you need to set the `:INDEX:` property of a headline to an appropriate abbreviation (e.g., ‘`cp`’ or ‘`vr`’). The headline is then exported as an unnumbered chapter or section command and the index is inserted after its contents.
