It is shown experimentally that nuclear emulsions can be used to determine the x-ray emission spectra of relativistic electron beams with good spatial resolution. X-ray emission spectra were recorded for the first time in different focusing regions of an electron beam produced by the ''Kal'mar-1'' high-current REB generator. The spectra were found to differ: the hardest x-rays were emitted at the center of the focal spot.
