DirectWrite with hinting

Can I get glyph outline with hinting in DirectWrite? In GDI, if I call GetGlyphOutline without specifying GGO_UNHINTED, I get the outline with hinting applied. The counterpart in DirectWrite is IDWriteFontFace::GetGlyphRunOutline, but there is not such a switch. From what I see, the outline is raw and no hinting is applied. Is there a way to apply hinting over the geometry?

Thanks.
