A method for exposing a substrate includes arranging, in a direction, pattern areas to projection systems respectively arranged at an interval and each having a magnifying magnification, the pattern areas having area widths each smaller than the interval and greater than a width obtained by dividing an exposure width of the projection system by the magnifying magnification; and successively transferring onto the substrate an image, projected by an associated projection system, of a first pattern provided in a first partial pattern area in each pattern area and an image, projected by the associated projection system, of a second pattern provided in a second partial pattern area in each pattern area and having at least a partial area different from the first partial pattern area in the direction in each pattern area. The occurrence of any stitch error is suppressed and the transfer accuracy is improved. |
