As a one-time graduate student in the pulp and paper engineering field, I would recommend that you contact a paper mill directly. I'm not sure where you're located so I can't give you the name of a specific mill. Start by contacting TAPPI, Technical Association of the Pulp and Paper Industry (http://www.tappi.org/index.asp?pid=16116&ch=11). You might also contact one of the universities with this area of study - Miami University in Ohio, Georgia Institute of Technology, North Carolina State University to name a few. http://www.resourcehelp.com/paper_edu.htm  ,     http://dmoz.org/Science/Technology/Chemical_Engineering/Pulp_and_Paper/. You might have a challenge finding this size paper. At the time I was in my program, I don't think that paper of this width  couldn't be run on the line. I'm guessing you might have to get your stock in sections.

Subject: looking to buy paper of very large dimensions

Hi,
Does anyone know of a source where I could buy paper
of extremely large dimensions? As large as 30 feet by
20 feet? Card stock: thick enough to withstead people
treading on it. This is for an exhibit prototype.

Thanks,
Nicolai
