The utl_file.put_line procedure included in the package adds a newline terminator (depending on the O/S I believe) on its own. There is also a utl_file.new_line procedure for explicitly appending newline characters only.
On the other hand, if you want to insert a specific character use the utl_file.put procedure and add the desired ASCII character using the CHR function, CHR(13) in your case.
I don't know if there is the possibility of (re)defining the newline character(s), but you could easily write your own procedure basing on the utl_file.put procedure and use it all the time.
