Abstract
Alignment marks of partial transfer patterns on a transfer mask are measured. On the basis of these measured alignment marks, functions for determining the positions of the alignment marks and the scale magnification in the relative scanning direction are calculated. The start and end positions of transfer of the partial transfer patterns to an object of transfer are calculated, and the scale magnification for moving a mask stage is corrected. The mask stage and a wafer stage are moved to sequentially expose the partial transfer patterns.
