As stated in the question I am trying to combine a drawing I have in .svg format with a simple cylinder in order to make a printable medal. I have tried the following code :

union()       {
    
translate([25,25,0]) cylinder(h=1.5,r=25,center=false);
translate([7,7,1.4]) linear_extrude (height=1.5) scale([0.2,0.2,1])  { import("/Users/tijg/Documents/projecten_actueel/3dwerk/eik/eikenblad-boom.svg");}
}

In the preview all looks well, but after rendering the drawing on top disappears. As I remove the cylinder, the drawing of the .svg renders perfectly and is printable. Any help much appreciated.

you need to emboss the image either by raising the image or by increasing the height of the image. once it protrudes it will not disappear.
