I'm completely new to GeoServer, so please excuse me if I'm asking obvious questions. In

In desktop GIS I can use CHAR(13) in views on SQL Server to make GIS interpret a carriage return, when I visualize a label. 

Is this possible using GeoServer? 

As I understand it there are possibilities directly on GeoServer, but I would like GeoServer as a default to interpret CHAR(13) delivered from SQL Server as a carriage return? I i.e. without having to meddle with GeoServer, as I do not have access to this particular GeoServer instance, and hence I'm forced to try to solve the problem directly on SQL Server. Thank you for your time. Joachim

Force GeoServer to make use of carriage return from SQL Server
