two things:

1) missing double quote at end of psmark line
2) you can't use TIFF2PDF anymore you have to use PS2TIFF

I understand that you probably don't have a test setup [1] but you should 
try this stuff yourself to figure out if something is wrong, understand the 
errors and at least try to fix them. This should at least make you a bit 
more confident with the code you are deploying. I hope the next mail would 
be a "success! works great!" one.

cheers,

[1] which basically means just cut and paste this stuff (from name=) and 
define the variables you are using and call it with a tiff as first argument.
