A microfabrication apparatus for pressing an original plate including a pattern down on a substrate to transfer the pattern on the substrate includes a first measurement unit for measuring relative positional displacement between the substrate and the plate above the substrate, a position correction unit for correcting relative position between the substrate and the plate such that the pattern is to be transferred on a first predetermined position of the substrate based on the relative positional displacement measured by the first measurement unit, a pressing unit for pressing the plate above the substrate down on the substrate to transfer the pattern on the substrate in a state that the relative positional displacement between the substrate and the plate is corrected by the position correction unit, and a second measurement unit for measuring relative positional relationship between the pattern transferred on the substrate and a pattern previously formed on the substrate.
