General ⇒ compiled PDF document doesn't have index (in metadata)

[alexander van loon]

Recently I discovered LaTeX as a superior alternative to OpenOffice, and I've grown to appreciate it. At this moment I'm using it for a document of a research assignment. But I'm still a beginner, and I have this silly problem which could apparently be fixed easily, but I can't find a solution even after a lot of searching.

Please see this screenshot of the manual of the Memoir package which I'm using in a PDF reader. The Memoir manual has an index in the PDF document's metadata as you can see in the screenshot. I expected it to be generated automatically when I compiled my own document using the Memoir class, but it doesn't. I studied the source file of the Memoir manual to see what caused the index to be generated, but I can't figure it out. I decided to create a minimal version of my document which doesn't use Memoir, but no index was generated either in that case, so apparently the problem is not restricted to the Memoir package. I've uploaded the PDF document and the source document which use the Memoir package.

In summary, can anyone please tell me what needs to be done to create such an index in the metadata of the PDF document?

\usepackage{hyperref}

Thank you very much, that's an easy and effective solution. However, that package doesn't seem to be used in the source of memoir class manual. Any idea how it got an index in the PDF document there without using hyperref, are there other ways to do it?

memman.tex does include hyperref, via the memsty package (l. 136).
