angular2-cli include custom fonts

For the people arriving here by searching:

Install with npm:

npm install roboto-fontface --save

Add to styles in .angular-cli.json (apps[0].styles):

"styles": [
    "styles.css",
    "../node_modules/roboto-fontface/css/roboto/roboto-fontface.css"
],

That's all!

Edit: since Angular 6 this file is called angular.json instead of angular-cli.json. Adding fonts still works the same way as before.

If using SCSS you can:

Install roboto-fontface

npm install roboto-fontface --save

Import on your styles.scss file

@import '~roboto-fontface/css/roboto/roboto-fontface.css';

body {
  font-family: Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
}

Have you tried using the googlefont url from https://fonts.google.com?

In your styles.css:

@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto');

Then use the font-family in styles.css or wherever you need:

body, html {
  font-family: 'Roboto';
}

I'm using this in my project and it works nicely.
