A calibration mask having a plurality of marks previously formed thereon is loaded, and a deflector is used to control deflection of electron beams so that the electron beams are incident on a mark of the calibration mask. The electron beams, having passed through the mark, impinge on a first Faraday cup having a first mark and on a second Faraday cup having a second mark. Then, positional coordinates on an XY stage are detected when electrical quantities detected by the Faraday cups are largest. The positional coordinates on the above mentioned XY stage are detected for each of the marks of the calibration mask. Then, according to the positional coordinates on the XY stage detected in this manner and a difference in height between the marks, the inclination of the electron beams is calculated for the position input to each mark of the calibration mask. Thus, the inclination of electron beams can be accurately measured.
