I have an FTP client class which returns InputStream pointing the file. I would like to read the file row by row with BufferedReader. The issue is, that the client returns the file in binary mode, and the file has ISO-8859-15 encoding.

If the file/stream/whatever really contains ISO-8859-15 encoded text, you just need to specify that when you create the InputStreamReader:
Then
readLine()will create valid Strings in Java’s native encoding (which is UTF-16, not UTF-8).
