Default Toilet install

Soon I'll be installing a new toilet in a bath remod I'm doing. I've
read somewhere that the distance from the wall to the center of the
toilet drain should be at least 14"... Is that correct. If so, I'm in
trouble because I only see 12"...

Can I buy a toilet to fit that..?
Tanks..

You recall incorrectly. The correct distance is 12" centerline
of toilet flange to back wall, at least 15" centerline to side
wall or tub.

Some toilets are different, but 12" is standard.
