I know that letters in Spanish are feminine, but I notice in this reading that the acronym DNI is proceeded by a masculine article. Is that because the word "documento" is masculine? Or are all acronyms masculine in Spanish?

Hola Steven
Yes, you're right, here it's "el DNI" because this is "el Documento Nacional de Identidad".
Here's a Kwiziq article on "Initials in Spanish" where you'll be able to read more information and see more examples about this topic.
