You don't want to do this in LilyPond, right? If so, you already replied to
yourself.
I did the same five years ago and the recommendation in this list was: work
on A4 in LilyPond and use some external tool (can't remember which) to
build the A3 pdf file. You already have the "pseudo code" to create that
pdf.
