How do you adjust the doors on a W124?

The driver's side door is not closing as well as it should; there's abrasion marks on the top of the B-pillar door lock catch so that tells me the door needs adjusted upward on the handle side.

I couldn't find a video of adjusting the door (I saw a lot for previous models), but I saw this article.

Before I go to this extent of loosening the door from the hinges and trying to move it, hold it, and tighten it, I'm wanted to see if this is the right way to do this. My door seems level, so I hate to adjust it. Is the door lock latch or B-pillar catch adjustable? Nothing looks adjustable; ie, it's not like there's a slotted hole, at least not one that I can see. I figure each of these components just has a single hole drilled in them for a bolt to go through.
