I retired 2 years ago from a pro lab in Seattle. What they do is print
on the next larger "standard" size paper but size you print (without any
cropping if that's what you want) to whatever size you want.
In your case, the size paper you would be charged for would be 20x30"
with the image sized 25x16.6" within that paper size. They would trim to
your specifications. The name of the lab is Ivey Imaging. They use a
Durst Lambda to make prints on regular photo paper from digital files.
The lab uses a color managed workflow. They expect that you also work in
a color managed workflow so that what you see on your calibrated monitor
will be close to what they see on their calibrated monitors.
