This is what the Haynes Guide says (I've never done it)
"Fore and aft adjustment of the door at the top and bottom is by shims inserted between the hinges and the door. Shims are available in thicknesses of 0.012 and 0.020 inches and can be slid into place after loosening the hinge retaining bolts.
Vertical and lateral adjustment is made by loosening the hinge retaining bolts slightly and moving the door as necessary. Once the correct door fit is obtained, adjust the striker plate so that the door opens and closes easily but firmly. With the door handle pulled out, shut the door and check that the lock slides over the striker plate without scraping. Tighten the bolts securely."
Hope that helps.
