utl_file and hex:00

Has anybody successfully written hex:00 to a flat file using utl_file. I have already written the required function to go from hex to characters, etc.... but I can't get past the problem of writing out a nul value that actually takes up a byte of space on the flat file. Any help would be greatly appreciated
