not sure how to do this in solidworks as everything i have done to date has been scaled or is smaller than an A size sheet of paper.
if i had to guess at it, i would try making a custom drawing template that had none of the normal boxes for text. then i would make a custom size that is the needed length and width and then play with it until i got it to do what i wanted it to do, which is print out the drawing as a multipage drawing.
another way that might work would be use the above steps until the print phase, where you could try making a pdf and then printing the pdf.
hope that helps.
