DRM apparently restricts changing the font, because that isn't possible with the library ebook although I can change the font on all other books on my T-1.

Why would any author or publisher care what font I read the book in? It's an Adobe epub of Raisin In The Sun, so the font is irrelevant to the work.
If the eBook in question is already using an embedded font, then you won't be able to change the font. The way publishers access embedded fonts is to use specific names and that doesn't work with the T1.
