read the current pdftex documentation: it's replaced by \pdfximage

personally, i never delve down to that sort of command level: i use
the graphics package instead: that uses drivers that are updated when
pdftex changes.

i suppose you're using plain tex?  there _is_ a version of the
graphics package for plain, but many plain users don't like it because
it makes things too easy for them (or something).
