From reading the rest of the discussion so far, it seems to me that you
have some (UTF-16/UCS-2 encoded) string, and you want to base64 encode
the string's CP-1250 representation.  Since you have not told in which
environment you're working, and since some examples used “windows”, I
assume you're working in a browser enviroment, where, to my knowledge,
there is no readily available solution for this task.  You can, however,
write your own encoding function by doing the mapping manually.  A
simplified, inelegant and incomplete example:

    function encode(str) {
        var map = {"š": "\x9a", "ć": "\xe6"};
        var dest = "";
        Array.prototype.forEach.call(str, function (ch) {
            dest += ch in map ? map[ch] : ch;
        });
        return btoa(dest);
    }

    encode("Perišić");
