try $ pdflatex --shell-escape on the document below:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\usepackage{pdfpages}

\begin{document}
First page
\begin{filecontents}{large}
   \documentclass{article}
   \usepackage[a3paper,landscape]{geometry}

   \begin{document}
   \setcounter{page}{2}
   Large page
   \end{document}
\end{filecontents}

\immediate\write18{pdflatex large}
\clearpage
{\setlength\paperwidth{420mm}
\setlength\paperheight{297mm}
\setlength\pdfpagewidth\paperwidth
\setlength\pdfpageheight\paperheight
\includepdf[scale=1,noautoscale]{large}}
\clearpage
Last page
\end{document}
