Summary:PURPOSE: To improve the alignment accuracy significantly in comparison with the conventional method. CONSTITUTION: A correction value is calculated in accordance with a deviation which is obtained by the detection of the relative position relation between a mask 3 and a photosensitive substrate 4. The mask 3 and the photosensitive substrate 4 are relatively moved in accordance with the correction value. Then, before the exposure is started, the relative position relation between the mask 3 and the photosensitive substrate 4 after the relative movement is detected again and it is judged whether the difference between the detected result and a predetermined position relation is within an allowable tolerance range or not. If it is not, the above-mentioned procedure is repeated. With this constitution, an error at the time of the relative movement in accordance with the correction value can be controlled, so that a pattern on the mask can be always transferred onto the photosensitive substrate with a high accuracy.
