WebP is lossy, so some data is discarded. At quality 80-85 the result is visually indistinguishable from the HWP source for photographic content. For logos, screenshots and line art, use lossless mode to keep edges perfectly crisp.

How much bigger or smaller will the WebP file be?

Smaller, usually dramatically so — HWP files are varies with page count and embedded media. The exact saving depends on the image, but photographic content at quality 80-85 commonly lands at a third of the original.
