Additionally when you use a full wave bridge, the DC voltage out is
higher than the RMS AC voltage in, so the RMS AC current on the
transformer secondary is higher than the DC current drawn by the
load. If I remember correctly, you take the desired DC current and
multiply it by 1.8 to size the transformer.
I think the Hammond page has a small tutorial on Power suply design using "Brute force" transformers
