Sorry, but you should get up to speed with how font rendering works. Antialias has nothing to do with hinting. Sure they both interact to form the final glyph images but they are different ways to change the appearance of fonts. Hinting changes the shape of glyphs, so it’s no surprise what you describe. In fact hinting or instructions in TrueType was invented by Apple and licensed to Microsoft to improve the look of monochrome fonts in Windows 95.
