A method generates a template for a solid preparation for performing a solid preparation inspection process of inspecting a letter or the like printed on a surface of the solid preparation printed by a printing means. The method includes a print inspection template generation step of generating, before the letter or the like is printed by the printing means on the solid preparation that is an inspection target, a print inspection template based on print data to be used by the printing means for the solid preparation that is the inspection target.本發明係提供一種可節省生成檢查固型製劑表面印刷之文字等所需模板之勞力和時間的固型製劑用模板生成方法，該固體製劑用模板用以實行檢查由印刷手段印刷在固體製劑表面之文字等之固體製劑檢查工序，其特徵係具備：在由前述印刷手段將文字等印刷在檢查對象之前述固體製劑之前，對於前述檢查對象之固體製劑，基於前述印刷手段預定使用之印刷數據生成印刷檢查模板之印刷檢查模板生成工序。根據本發明可以節省生成檢查固體製劑表面印刷之文字等所需模板之勞力和時間。
