A lithographic projection apparatus is disclosed that includes a substrate table, a positioner, a projection system and a fluid handling system. The substrate table is constructed and arranged to hold a substrate, the substrate having an edge feature. The projection system is configured to project a patterned beam of radiation onto the substrate. The fluid handling system is constructed and arranged to supply a liquid flow to a space between the projection system and the substrate table and to at least partly confine the liquid to the space. The positioner is configured to position the substrate on the substrate table so that the edge feature lies downstream of the substrate in the liquid flow. |
