A mask includes a main pattern for resolving a target pattern to be formed on a substrate and an auxiliary pattern not resolving. Values of parameters of the main pattern and the auxiliary pattern are set. An image is calculated that is formed when the main pattern and the auxiliary pattern determined by the values of the parameters of the main pattern and the auxiliary pattern are projected by a projection optical system. Based on a result of the calculation that is performed by modifying the values of the parameters of the main pattern and the auxiliary pattern, the values of the parameters of the main pattern and the auxiliary pattern are determined to generate data of the mask including the main pattern and the auxiliary pattern determined. |
