You would need to precede the pfdStoreFile() call with:

#include <Performer/pfdb/pfpfb.h>
...
pfdConverterMode_pfb(PFPFB_SAVE_TEXTURE_IMAGE, PF_ON);

But overall it looks to me that the path to the original texture files
aren't being found once you convert to PFB. By making the above call
(which is the C equivalent of -M pfb,1,1 option to pfconv) you are
storing the textures directly in the file.

Another way around this might be to setenv PFPATH to wherever the
textures are located.

And last, I bet the "-M pfb 2,1" option to pfconv would also work.
This is aka: pfdConverterMode_pfb(PFPFB_SAVE_TEXTURE_PATH, PF_ON);
