Try the following piece of HTML with the WriteHTML function, result is that the text that has a space in front if it, is not rendered in the PDF, while the text that has no leading space, does appear.
I have experienced an issue like this, but it was not the fault of TCPDF. Some HTML gets written with a UTF-8 hard space character, which TCPDF rejects (whether that's right or wrong I don't know). TinyMCE definitely writes hard spaces into the HTML it generates when it encounters " "...
You can do something like this to convert UTF-8 hard spaces to soft spaces before sending the HTML to TCPDF:
$text = str_replace("\xC2\xA0", ' ', $text);

As indicated by Robert Johnson this seems to be a coding issue.
You must be sure that the HTML code is properly encoded and eventually you can use the fixHTMLCode() method.

Edit; escaped the HTML
<table>
<tr>
<td>This text is visible</td>
<td> This text is not! (mind the leading space)</td>
</tr>
</table>
