You must be confusing things here Maning,

Mxd is the format that ArcGIS uses to store *mapdocuments*, while
shapefiles/database geometry data/coverages/rasters are displayed on that
map. If you only have the mxd you won't be able to convert anything to
shapefile. You need the original data.

A Mxd is much like an HTML. It provides information on how content is
organized, but it's not content itself.
