I upgraded from tetex-1.x to tetex-2.02 and reinstalled jadetex, this did the 
trick. I guess the standard configuration for tex in tetex 2.02 has some more 
usefull defaults for buffer sizes.

Now the pdf is produced, but not all images are displayed correctly. E.g. 
images in chapter 11 which are inserted with the following command are 
displayed correctly:

<figure id="BCD.EFF.F.S68.001" float="1">
       <title>Animation Buttons Window</title>
        <graphic fileref="gfx/chapter_effects/AnimButtons.png" scale="50"/>
</figure>

But the images in other chapters, e.g. chapter 3 are missing in the PDF 
output. These figures are included differently, see code below. (<imagedata> 
tag instead of <graphic> tag.) The image file exists in the correct 
directory.

<figure>
  <title>The File Select window</title>
  <mediaobject>
     <imageobject>
     <imagedata fileref="gfx/chapter_interface/FileWindow_320.png" 
format="PNG"/>
     </imageobject>
     </mediaobject>
</figure>

The interessting point is, that the html output does include the images 
correctly, but not the pdf document.

Best regards,
 Christian
