The PIV of centre-tapped rectifier is 2Vm. But what is the PIV of Bridge Rectifier?

If PIV of centre-tapped rectifier is 2Vm (meaning 2 x Vm) then PIV of a bridge rectifier is Vm ( 1 x Vm).
See page 5 & 6 of http://ogrenci.hacettepe.edu.tr/~john03/downloads/Ele-210/Rectifiers-4sp.pdf

The PIV of the bridge is the same as the PIV of any of the 4 individual diodes inside the bridge.
The data sheet for the bridge rectifier will specify the PIV.

Peak inverse vge of a bridge rectifier is simply Vm. Forgot how it was Vm.

Didn't really find PIV, what does ti stand for?
