Where are margin notes in Nestle-Aland Greek NT?

I have been reading about learning more of the OT citations in the NT, and I found a resource that mentions this:

[QUOTE]If you have a Nestle Aland Greek New Testament, you have an excellent tool for finding Old Testament citations and allusions in the New. Even if you do not read Greek, the Nestle Aland text can help you with its marginal notes and indexes. Here are some things to be aware of:

Italics in the Greek text of the New Testament mean that the words are being quoted from the Old Testament. For the source of the words, look in the outer margin for an italicized citation. For example, Mt. 2:6 is italicized; in the margin is the note: Mch 5,1.3. This means that Micah 5:1 & 5:3 in the LXX are being cited in Matthew.

Outer margin notes tell you what the authors think are Old Testament and New Testament material that might be related to the verses you are reading. For example, at Mt. 2:5, just before the quotation of Micah, in the margin of the Nestle Aland text is "J 7,42." This is a reference to John 7:42, which also mentions Bethlehem as the Messiah's birthplace.
The marginal notes do not mean to suggest direct relationships between texts. They only mean to point you to similar material elsewhere in the Old Testament or New Testament.

An Index of Old Testament citations & allusions (as well as citations and allusions to some other ancient literature) is located in the back of the Nestle Aland text, beginning on p. 770. This is arranged by Old Testament book and verse.

For example, on the first page of the index, beside Gen. 1,27 are these notes: Mt 19,4 Mc 10,6 Act 17,29 R 8,29 1 Kor 11,7 1 T2, 13. At all those places in the New Testament, Gen. 1:27 is in the background (in the judgment of the Nestle Aland editors), whether as a citation, allusion, reminiscence, or whatever. The italic type for the Matthew and Mark texts indicates that those two verses are a citation of Gen. 1:27.[/QUOTE]

I cannot find any margin notes nor index at the end.  Can anyone help, are these available?
