An electron beam writing apparatus comprises: an electron beam source for projecting an electron beam; a first mask provided with a first rectangular aperture for passing the electron beam projected by the electron beam source to shape the electron beam in a primary shaped beam having a rectangular cross section; a second mask provided with a second rectangular aperture for passing the primary shaped beam to shape the primary shaped beam in a secondary shaped beam having a rectangular cross section, and triangular apertures for passing the primary shaped beam to form a secondary shaped beam having a triangular cross section; a first electron beam deflecting system for moving the primary shaped beam on the surface of the second mask; and a second electron beam deflecting system for moving the secondary shaped beam on the surface of a workpiece on which a pattern is to be written. Each of the triangular apertures is formed in a size such that the triangular aperture can be entirely covered with a rectangular image formed by the first shaped beam on the surface of the second mask.
