Abstract
Pattern forming method includes, for each shot area group (SAG) in the following order: discretely dropping curable composition droplets to layer the droplets on a plurality of shot areas included in a certain SAG on substrate; waiting for a time of (m−m)×Td, where Td is a time for the dropping on one shot area, m is the number of shot areas included in the certain SAG, and mis the maximum value of m; and imprinting in order that the dropping is performed on the plurality of shot areas. The time Td and a time Ti for the imprinting on one shot area are equal to each other. The number of shot areas included in at least one SAG is different from the number of shot areas included in another at least one SAG. In the waiting, the dropping and the imprinting are not performed.
