PURPOSE: A method of manufacturing a color filter is provided to satisfactorily protect colored portions, to reduce the amount of protective material used, and to keep the thickness of a liquid crystal layer constant. CONSTITUTION: A method of manufacturing a color filter consists of five steps. The first step measures at least the mean distance from the bottom surface to the top surface of a colored portion formed by filling a first recess portion with a first amount of ink and the mean distance from the bottom surface of the top surface of a colored portion formed by filling a second recess portion with a second amount of ink. The second step creates data representing the relationship between the mean distance from the bottom surface to the top surface of a colored portion and the ink amount from at least the two measured mean distances and at least the two corresponding ink amounts. The third step determines the third amount of ink to be charged into one recess portion on the basis of the data such that the mean distance from the bottom surface to the top surface of the colored portion falls within a predetermined range, wherein the distance within the predetermined range is 20% to 80% of the distance from the bottom portion to the top portion of the partition wall. The fourth step prepares information about a third amount of ink which is obtained by execution from the first step to the third step. The fifth step forms a colored portion in the recess portion by filling the recess portion with the third amount of ink.
