A method for manufacturing a plasma display apparatus includes bonding a
panel to a sustaining board (chassis) with a sufficient bonding area. In
a process of bonding the panel to the chassis, the panel is supported on
the sustaining board (chassis) via a heat conducting sheet. Then the
panel and the chassis are sandwiched between resilient pressuring boards,
which are larger than the panel and the chassis. After that, a
predetermined pressure is applied from at least one of the pressuring
boards, thereby bonding the panel to the chassis via a heat conducting
sheet.
