First, you'll have to get a license that grants you the use of that 
font, for the machine you want to use it on. Typically this means just 
finding a software bundle that comes with the font you want, but Times 
New Roman is only 30 euro, so it's probably cheapest to just buy a copy 
of it. The complete family is 175 euro, which is actually still cheaper 
than most software bundles that come with Times, although of course 
these will also come with loads of  other professional fonts that you 
can then use, so it might be more economical to buy a copy of Microsoft 
Windows or Office specifically for the rights that grants you with 
respects to using fonts.
