How do I enter a newline character in the product description. I have tried <br> after each line but that didn't work.

Where are you looking for this formatting to display? The product listing pages strip out all HTML formatting because it might break the page when the description is shortened to the length set in admin. HTML closing tags could be cut off, causing many errors, so they are all removed.

So is there a way to have formatted text in the product descriptions on the category pages?

Yes, there is. It's relatively simple - comment out "zen_clean_html" in two places in a file. See this thread: Trying to add line breaks into description
