I've designed a PCB trace in solidworks that i'd like to export to gerber files to build a PCB. Is that possible?
Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Nope.
You need a proper PCB design program to output gerbers. There are many free/cheap ones out there like Eagle or Diptrace.
 
Proto,

So what did you use for the DXF to Gerber conversion? I've only found LinkCAD so far. It is a very nice tool but a bit pricy.

Thanks,
