You need to lower your bridge. As to how, depends on your guitar.

Exactly.

Sometimes the stringheight also might be a result of a neck thats not straight.

Take it in to a shop. Chances are, you are not gonna be able to do that without changing the nut and adjusting the truss rod. Have a pro do it.

I have lowered the action on all my guitars. but of course you need a little bit of feel and knowledge on how to do so, of which I have none on 12-string acoustics.
