| 1. A method of manufacturing a printed circuit board, comprising the steps of:
forming a thin metal film on an insulating layer;
forming conductive patterns on said thin metal film by electroplating;
removing said thin metal film excluding a region under said conductive patterns by etching; and
processing the insulating layer exposed between said conductive patterns by isotropic plasma etching.
