In the exposure method and apparatus, the distortion data of the projection lens in each exposure unit itself has already been known for each exposure unit. Accordingly, when the exposure unit which formed the alignment target layer has already been known, the known data of this exposure unit is used to correct at least one of the projection magnification and shot rotation determined according to multipoint EGA operation, and the exposure apparatus is adjusted by the amount of this correction. When the exposure unit forming the alignment target layer is unknown, the alignment mark exposure unit is specified from the state of distribution of non-linear error computed from the alignment mark measured values within a shot. Under thus determined correct projection magnification and shot rotation, a shot area is accurately overlaid with and exposed to a reticle pattern.
