How to tighten the seal compression on a Ford Ranger canopy:

Loosen the lock striker bolt slightly. Tap the lock strike as far in as it can go before retightening fully.

This can be brought back out incrementally to make it easier for the doors to latch as these are slammed closed.

Complete this on all three doors.
