'first check the script to make sure the translation is as good as it can be, and then check the script against the online course'

I would like to know what exact activities and in what extent does the phrase "check the script against the online course" involve.

Thank you in advance!

Notes to answerer
Asker: I know it means to "compare with" but does the quoted phrase mean "detailed" comparison and does it also include "proofreading" the "online course"?

Explanation:
I think this might fit in, you could also use "cross check the script against the online course..." if you wanted to remain true to the original.
Suerte!

Explanation:
First, after translating the script, verify your translation by comparing it by the script (in your printed materials).
Then, check that the translation content and the online course information correspond to each other.
