Abstract

A method of and apparatus for testing a two dimensional pattern uses a pair of pick-up devices for scanning a reference pattern and the pattern to be tested. The reference pattern is modified relative to the test pattern and includes three types of pattern traces, i.e. narrow black traces, narrow bright traces and intermediate wide grey traces. The pattern is tested by means of the narrow traces only thereby minimizing positioning and scanning problems.
