Number (4) below makes the TOC live, but while you have the "change
conversion settings" open, also go to the last tab called "bookmarks" and
choose the styles you made to denote your headings, subheadings, etc. As
you've been able to create a proper TOC, they already should be fine to
produce properly indented bookmarks.
If you want the bookmarks to show automatically when the file opens, set
that in Acrobat.
