This invention provides the charged particle beam transfer method, which can control adverse effect of distortion or blur that arises from the space charge effect due to the non-uniform pattern density to a minimum. A pattern formed on reticle is raster or step-and-repeat scanned with a charged particle beam and is illuminated in consecutive order, and a pattern image of a sub-field, which is illuminated, is to be formed on a certain position of a radiation sensitive substrate. On the radiation sensitive substrate whole pattern is projected through stitching the said pattern image. The pattern is to be divided into plural areas A and B which differ in pattern density one another, and the above-described scan boundary is made to coincide with the boundary of these plural areas.
