1. A self-contained and portable scan stand kit for capturing images of documents and other objects, comprising: a receiver box defining a storage space and an open top, the receiver box having an attachment structure, and a bottom surface and side walls defining a storage space;a removable box lid configured to cover the open top and the storage space with the box lid positioned on the open top of the receiver box;a post system; anda digital imaging device configured to be supported by the post system above the box in an image scan position, the digital imaging device having a field of view sufficiently large to encompass a document or object positioned on or in the box;the post system and attachment structure configured to removably receive a first end of the post system to support the post system in an upright position, the attachment structure configured to permit the post system to be removed from the attachment structure for storage in the box;the post system further configured for disassembly to fit with the digital imaging device within the storage space in a storage configuration with the box lid positioned on the open top of the receiver box;wherein the attachment structure includes at least one receptacle at or adjacent said one of the side walls, and the first end of the post structure is configured to engage the at least one receptacle; andwherein the at least one receptacle includes a plurality of receptacles at spaced locations within the box at or adjacent said one of the side walls, said plurality including first and second corner receptacles disposed at opposed ends of said one of the side walls and a third receptacle disposed intermediate said opposed ends, to provide placement flexibility for the post system. 2. The kit of claim 1, wherein the at least one receptacle is configured with the post system to permit the at least one receptacle to receive the first end of the post system with the box disposed in an upright position on a work surface with the bottom surface adjacent the work surface, and with the box disposed in an inverted, upside-down position relative to the work surface with the open top of the box adjacent the work surface. 3. The kit of claim 1, wherein the post system is a telescoping post system configured to provide an adjustable height above the box for positioning the digital imaging device at a plurality of scan positions. 4. The kit of claim 1, wherein the post system includes a first post and an extension post configured to removably attach to the first post to provide a length extension of the post system, to provide a plurality of scan positions of the digital imaging device. 5. The kit of claim 1, further including a flexible gooseneck configured for attachment to the post system and connected to the digital imaging device, the flexible gooseneck configured to allow a user to move the digital imaging device to different scan positions above the box, with the gooseneck attached to the post system. 6. The kit of claim 1, wherein the digital imaging device includes a web camera (webcam). 7. The kit of claim 1 wherein the digital imaging device includes an electronic connection for electronic transfer of a captured image to a computer system. 8. The kit of claim 7, wherein the electronic connection is a cable connected to the digital imaging device and having a connector for connection to a computer. 9. The kit of claim 1, further comprising a target image disposed on the bottom wall of the box for use in manually adjusting a focus of the digital imaging device. 10. The kit of claim 1, wherein the box further includes a set of partition slots disposed on opposite ones of the side walls and configured to receive and support a box partition for auto-positioning of documents within the box, by reducing a size of the storage volume to configure the box to support a document or other object of a footprint size smaller than the bottom wall in a position to be scanned by the digital imaging device. 11. The kit of claim 1, further comprising: an imaging device support bracket or tray configured for removable attachment to the post system to be supported by the post system, the support bracket or tray having an opening formed in a bottom surface thereof, the support bracket or tray arranged to support the digital imaging device with its field of view through the tray opening. 12. A self-contained and portable scan stand kit for capturing images of documents and other objects, comprising: a receiver box defining a storage space and an open top, the receiver box having an attachment structure, and a bottom surface and side walls defining a storage space;a removable box lid configured to cover the open top and the storage space with the box lid positioned on the open top of the receiver box;a post system; anda digital imaging device configured to be supported by the post system above the box in an image scan position, the digital imaging device having a field of view sufficiently large to encompass a document or object positioned on or in the box;the post system and attachment structure configured to removably receive a first end of the post system to support the post system in an upright position, the attachment structure configured to permit the post system to be removed from the attachment structure for storage in the box;the post system further configured for disassembly to fit with the digital imaging device within the storage space in a storage configuration with the box lid positioned on the open top of the receiver box;wherein the attachment structure includes at least one receptacle at or adjacent said one of the side walls, and the first end of the post structure is configured to engage the at least one receptacle;wherein the at least one receptacle is configured with the post system to permit the at least one receptacle to receive the first end of the post system with the box disposed in an upright position on a work surface with the bottom surface adjacent the work surface, and with the box disposed in an inverted, upside-down position relative to the work surface with the open top of the box adjacent the work surface; andwherein the lid is configured to attach to the box in the inverted, upside-down position in a cantilevered arrangement to extend a scan bed area. 13. A portable scan stand kit for capturing images of documents and other objects, comprising: a receiver box defining a storage space and an open top, the receiver box having a bottom surface and side walls defining a storage space;a removable box lid configured to cover the open top and the storage space with the lid positioned on the open top of the receiver box;a post system; anda digital imaging device configured to be supported by the post system above the box in an image scan position, the digital imaging device having a field of view sufficiently large to encompass a document or object positioned on or in the box;the post system and digital imaging device further configured to fit within the storage space in an unassembled condition with the lid positioned on the open top of the receiver box in a storage configuration;a light shielding structure arranged to cover the digital imaging device in the image scan position, the post system and the box, the light shielding structure fabricated of a flexible material, and configured to be collapsible to a substantially flattened configuration to fit into the box in the storage configuration; andwherein the post system further comprises a lid support post system to removably attach to the lid structure to support the lid in an elevated position above the digital imaging device in the image scan position, the lid structure configured to support the light shielding structure. 14.
