The present invention provides a decision method of causing a computer to decide an exposure condition to be set in an exposure apparatus including an illumination optical system that illuminates a pattern including a plurality of pattern elements, and a projection optical system that projects the pattern onto a substrate, including a step of obtaining a distance between intersections of a first line, used to evaluate dimensions of images of the pattern elements, and contours of the images of the pattern elements by obtaining the image of the pattern formed on the image plane of the projection optical system, and a step of determining whether there exist intersections of a second line, used to evaluate whether the images of the pattern elements are resolved, and the contours of the images of the pattern elements to evaluate whether the images of the pattern elements are resolved. |
