I've been using LZW compression with TIFFs for a while and I've never seen one get larger than the original. Just to test it, I took a RAW image and converted it to uncompressed TIFF and I then saved the image. I then took the image and re-named it and saved it as a LZW compressed TIFF. The uncompressed file was a little larger than 29 mb and the compressed TIFF was a little larger than 17 mb.
