I use this technique for wrinting out my bass parts with a midi file to listen 
to.  The midi part is writen to the tones that are supposed to be heard, the 
written part is transposed an octave up.  I also use it to do exactly what the 
OP wants - have a midi file with the complete harmonies, and a print out with 
just the chord symbols.
