Abstract: In a flexible transfer body employing curable resin as a transfer material, thickness unevenness in a substrate and a transfer layer is reduced and the thickness of the transfer layer is made to be uniform. Liquid curable resin is coated onto a rotation center or the vicinity of the rotation center of a mold, which is a rotator having a functional form on a surface thereof. A flexible film is brought into contact with a surface of the coated curable resin in a liquid state and the curable resin is spread to the circumferential edge of the mold by a centrifugal force. And the curable resin is cured by supplying chemical or thermal energy thereto and the curable resin is separated from the mold, thereby obtaining a flexible transfer body in which the curable resin is transferred to the film.
