Yes - it can be done with the cvtxxx APIs.

I've written about them here: https://authory.com/app/content/a1f041b825ea04de78ae1ff18fda62cdc <https://authory.com/app/content/a1f041b825ea04de78ae1ff18fda62cdc>

Hi,

I need to convert a character string to hex, which I don't think can be
done with "cvtch".

For example, if input string is '04A1060A' (8 characters) I need the output
string to be x'04A1060A' (4 characters).

Any ideas?

TIA
