I say that you didn't send the complete file, because I had to add the 
\documentclass, \begin{document} and \end{document} tags.  What was 
sent could not be ran through latex or pdflatex.

I don't know how much help I can give you, but all pdftricks does is 
make a separate file for each pdfpic and then run it through 
latex->dvips->ps2eps->epstopdf and then include the resulting pdf back 
into the main document.  You should be able to run everything by hand 
from the command line and get the same result.  In fact, the exact 
commands are in the log file.  So, if it works with latex/dvips it 
should also work with pdflatex.
