A method of acquiring an offset deflection amount for a shaped beam, includes forming reference images of first and second figures which can be shaped by first and second aperture plates placed on a lithography apparatus, and a reference image of a mark; forming first and second convolution reference images based on the reference images of the mark and of the first and second figures; scanning over the mark with charged particle beams shaped into the first and second figures to acquire optical images of the first and second figures; forming first and second convolution synthesis images based on the first convolution reference image and respectively the optical images of the first and second figures; and calculating an offset deflection amount for the charged particle beam shaped into the second figure to match reference positions of the first and second figures based on center-of-gravity positions of the first and second convolution synthesis images.
