Hm, that should be transparent. I guess you are not submitting a 
<base64> object but a <string>? You need to submit an XML-RPC data 
object.

Well, maybe newDocument() really has a bug, but if I see it right, 
saveDocument() should definitely work.
If it doesn't, and you are *SURE* that you are submitting a XML-RPC 
<base64> tag (eg you can use -WOHttpAdaptor_LogStream YES), make a 
bugreport.

I think it should work just fine if you pass in a data object.

a) use ZideStore PUT/GET: this is much better suited for file stuff 
anyway.
b) create an empty document with newDocument(), then store the real
   content with saveDocument()
