Perhaps these should be in the pipeline, as the online templates I could find for astrological charts do not have them; they have to be added in (although it would be possible to have these built into the chart template also, as the houses are always in the same place and the ascendant is always located between the 12th and the 1rst, etc.); see:
http://www.skyscript.co.uk/charttemp.html

Similarly Paul Wade's copiable template is void of the symbols
http://books.google.com/books?id=WY8hjKtSaP0C&pg=PA40&lpg=PA40&dq=natal+charts+astrological+charts+templates&source=bl&ots=By-xF3UGWB&sig=KvomOKgo999CwuJPKaq1LmeoqHc&hl=fr&sa=X&ei=oMCRUK-wF5Sc8gTWi4DYAg&ved=0CDQQ6AEwAzgK#v=onepage&q=natal%20charts%20astrological%20charts%20templates&f=false

(I'll try to check an offline guide, too, but the few actual online templates, not sample charts, seem void of the symbols for the ascendant, midheaven, etc., so they seem to be separate from the actual chart of the houses, so go for it. Happy Halloween in any case.)
