A photomask is disclosed which can suppress deterioration of the depth of focus even in the case where main features are arranged randomly. Sub-features are replaced by a quadrangular sub-feature located inside an external quadrangle which includes as part of its outer periphery the outermost portions of the original sub-features. The sub-feature after the replacement is preferably in a square shape and the length of one side thereof is determined in accordance with the length of the associated external quadrangle. A central position of the sub-feature after the replacement is preferably coincident with the center of the external quadrangle or the center of gravity of the region which includes the original sub-features. |
