Placing the graphics in other files eliminates the problems with meshing them with the text. We could either have the figures in another file along with their captions and simply link them as cross-refs, bookmarks, or hyperlinks. Of course, we could do this with the conventional portrait orientation also. I mentioned that earlier, but it was shot down as being too complicated.
Keeping pix in other files (even collecting them all in one file separate from the text) are, IMO, a big problem for both writers and readers, for reasons I expressed earlier.
Alternatively, these graphics could be located at the end of the chapters (possibly hidden? there) and likewise linked (visibly, of course). The latter way keeps them embedded in their files with the textual matter.
I don't know how to do this, but if it works (keeping the images in the same document), it would meet most of the objections I expressed in my earlier note. (The "too much work for the writer" might still be an issue; I don't know without trying it. Quite possibly the saving in hassle of fitting pix on the pages, flowing test around, etc, would be more than enough to cover the extra work of having the pix elsewhere in the file and linking to them.)
