In digital publishing, a "fixed" layout ensures that every illustration, diagram, and block of text stays exactly where the author intended—just like a physical printed book. This is crucial for martial arts manuals where the relationship between an image (a specific stance or block) and its explanatory text must remain perfectly aligned to be useful for practice.
