  Hello Roger and all...

  In these cases most often the center hole is punched in the wrong 
place.  If
  you have the disc, this can be fixed by slightly reaming out the hole 
and then
  centering the groove spiral on the disc before transferring it.

  CEDAR has a process called ReSpeed that can do just that... take an 
off center
  transfer made from a disc and correct it without the necessity of 
having the
  original disc to do it with!

  I've used it to fix an otherwise previously impossible problem where 
the disc
  grooves were oblate, that is, football shaped probably caused by 
improperly
  removing the disc from the record press in the pressing process.
