Method of generating ejection pattern data, and head motion pattern data; apparatus for generating ejection pattern data; apparatus for ejecting functional liquid droplet; drawing system; method of manufacturing organic EL device, electron emitting device, PDP device, electrophoresis display device, color filter, and organic EL; and method of forming spacer, metal wiring, lens, resist, and light diffuser

A functional liquid droplet ejection device comprising:

• an ejection pattern data-generating device that generates ejection pattern data for a plurality of nozzles formed in an array in a functional liquid droplet ejection head, the ejection pattern data being used for selectively ejecting functional liquid droplets from the nozzles, to thereby draw on at least one chip-forming area on a workpiece, the device including:
• pixel-setting means for setting pixel information concerning an array of pixels in the at least one chip-forming area;
• chip-setting means for setting chip information concerning an array of the at least one chip-forming area on the workpiece;
• nozzle-setting means for setting nozzle information concerning an array of the nozzles;
• storage means for storing the pixel information, the chip information, and the nozzle information, which have been set;
• and
• data-generating means for generating the ejection pattern data for the nozzles based on a positional relationship between the workpiece and the functional liquid droplet ejection head, and each information stored in said storage means, wherein the pixel information includes color information of the functional liquid droplets and wherein said data-generating means generates the ejection pattern data on a color-by-color basis.
