The only standard and sane fixed layout is PDF, which is for preview or creating paper, though people use it as an electronic reading medium.
Fixed layout and ebook is a contradiction in terms as the whole point of ebooks is not fixed layout, which needs a predetermined page size, but at view time for the user to reflow the content to fit the window or device screen. So fixed layout epub3 work on less platforms than PDF and don't work well or at all on phones or actual ereaders. Often Amazon won't let you download fixed layout/print replica on a real Kindle. They used to not even let you buy it unless you'd registered a Kindle Program for mac or PC.
