I've a score scroll that I'd obtained years ago and I'd like it copied. While I am indeed able to open it up and view the code, the letters are garbled and some simply are not visible. Is there a way to select the text and then copy and paste it into a new scroll?
Thanks in advance.

In-game, not that I'm aware of (which is why it's a little dumb they let you view the scroll's contents in the first place).
With outside tools, yes. I and somebody else have developed two separate methods to copy score scrolls that other people play (or that we have in our possession, say somebody letting us hold it for a few minutes). This is because the game actually does store the scroll's contents as MML even when transferring it to the game clients of other players in order for their game to play the music too, so we can just copy it back out and fix the formatting.
But unless you're on Ruairi I can't do it for you, as none of my characters/pets are on the other servers at all. As far as making a tutorial on this, some of the tools needed are probably a little taboo to be spoken of here (but before people shit themselves no it's not pake), so unless a mod okays it... sorry but some of the tools are considered abusable so I'm hush-hush on the actual use/process.

I'm on Alexina... Could you private message me what to do if you don't want to talk about it here?

Alright, PM'd, but it's sort of a complex method.
