It's not clear to me what system you have, but I think that your
application (or OS) is not correctly applying LSB and RSB deltas while
auto-hinting.

Cf. this bug report.

No, this won't work automatically.

ttfautohint might help.  However, if your system does auto-hinting for
all fonts, the TrueType hints created by ttfautohint are completely
ignored.
