This is documented behavior. The image is kept in memory but
is not written to the PDF. See the pdftex manual for details.
The following writes the image to the PDF:

  \pdfximage{hog.pdf}
  \pdfrefximage\pdflastximage
  \bye

Using \immediate should work too:

  \immediate\pdfximage{hog.pdf}
  \bye

However, the last-mentioned case does not work for me. Maybe
this is just a bug in the beta version?

This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159-1.10a-beta-20021115 (Web2C 7.3.11)


Ciao
