And the wire sheet is now marked on the outer circumference of the pattern PA of the reticle R (not shown). The light-receiving sensor 丨 28 takes the reference mark of the reference mark member m and the image formed on the mark. The alignment of the reticle R can be performed by measuring the difference between the reference mark and the alignment mark by measuring the relative position of the reticle R and the fine movement stage 61 based on the position measurement result. Alternatively, the illuminating light EL passing through the reticle R and the projection may be formed.
