At a rough guess, looks like it is choking on an image render.

Try it with individual pages, or a smaller sub-set of pages, using the
-p flag, so you can see where exactly it borks.

Which version of swftools are you using?  A current snapshot, or even the 
latest git, maybe prove to be less troublesome. ( No guarantees though! )

Able to link to an 'errant' pdf for testing?

HTH a little. Sorry, but I'm not a Mac user.
