In a process for obtaining from tobacco leaves fragments of substantially constant shape and more particularly the shape of a quadrilateral having parallel opposite sides, wherein the leaves are subjected to a cutting operation along parallel and equidistant cutting lines, the fragments obtained are subjected to an orientation operation so that the cutting lines should assume a first given direction and the fragments which are thus oriented are caused to undergo a recutting operation along equidistant recutting lines which are parallel to a second given direction, the step of separating from all the oriented fragments which are caused to undergo the recutting operation all those fragments whose projection on a line at right angles to said second direction is smaller in length than the distance between said recutting lines.
