Data between

<w:binData w:name="wordml://02000001.jpg" xml:space="preserve"> and </w:binData>

are encoded in base64 and base64 is 7 bit encoding.

But...

if xml encoding is "UTF-8","UTF-7" no problema..
if xml encoding is "UTF-16" you can try use

STRCONV(STRCONV(STRCONV(FILETOSTR("newpicture.jpg"),13),1),5)

1) to base64
2) to DBCS
3) to UNICODE (UTF-16)

if xml encoding is "UTF-32" it's problem...
